World Religions and Multiculturalism: A Dialectic Relation
ISBN: 9789004188921 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is about new forms of religiosity and religious activity emerging in the context of their dialectic relations with contemporary multicultural realities. World religions are effectively a major agent of the multiculturalization of contemporary societies. However, multiculturalism pushes them not only toward change and reforms, but also toward new conflicts between and within them. This process should remind us of the Jewish legend of the Golem - an animated being created by man which finally challenges the latter's control over it - a dialectic relation, indeed. World religions today...

My Brain Made Me Do It: The Rise of Neuroscience and the Threat to Moral Responsibility
ISBN: 9781616141653 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As scientists continue to explore how the brain works, using ever more sophisticated technology, it seems likely that new findings will radically alter the traditional understanding of human nature. One aspect of human nature that is already being questioned by recent developments in neuroscience is free will. Do our decisions arise from purely mechanistic processes? Is our feeling of self-control merely an illusion created by our brains? If so, what will become of free will and moral responsibility? These thorny questions and many more are examined with great clarity and insight in this...
